Resumen:
Lakes, rivers, estuaries and ocean waterscontrol many important natural functions at the regional-global level. Hence,integrative and frequent long-term water monitoring is required globally. Thispaper describes the main features and innovations of a low-cost monitoringbuoys network (MBN) deployed in a temperate region of Argentina. The MBN wasdesigned to record extended time series at high-frequency, which is of greatvalue for the scientific community, as well as for decision-makers. Inaddition, two innovative designs belonging to two versions of moored buoys(i.e. shallow waters and coastal marine waters) were presented. It was shownthat the cost of either of two versions of the buoy is low, which can be onsideredas the main advantage.
